<P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0in">Test plans, suites and cases can all be
moved or copied to a different release, plan or suite in one of two
ways. Users can either drag and drop suites and cases within a plan
or can use the move/copy function, accessible via the context menu.
Right click on the main navigation tree to access this menu and
select either Move To or Copy To. Both of these actions affect
reporting in different ways. Consult with your manager to determine
the best practice.</P>

<P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0in"><I><B>Move To</B></I></P>
<P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0in">When moving test plans, suites or
cases, the parent container is changed and the originals will no
longer exist. Reports that display the number of the test cases and
the results of those cases will be changed by this action. The test
cases will be counted under the new release and test plan.</P>

<P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0in"><I><B>Copy To</B></I></P>
<P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0in">When copying test plans, suites or
cases, a new set of the items is created and the original set is
retained in the original parent item (plan or release). Reports that
display the number of the test cases and the results of those cases
will be changed by this action. The test cases will be counted under
<I><B>both</B></I> the new release and plan as well as the original
release and plan.
